What they should really do is make the decryption key backupable.

Then you can keep it at home, and you can genuinely say that you don't remember it because it's like 128 digits.

And you're not "destroying evidence" in the jurisdiction in question because the phone is already locked. And you can't unlock it on demand.

that seems like a security nightmare...

Passing through immigration with a fully reset phone does the same. The full encrypted backup is on a HD at home. Nothing to access on the phone.
